Lyrics:

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo

I'm packed and I'm holding, I'm smiling

She's living, she's golden, she lives for me

Says she lives for me

Ovation, her own motivation

She comes 'round and she goes down on me

And I make her smile like a drug for you

Do ever what you want to do, coming over you

Keep on smiling what we go through

One-stop to the rhythm that divides you

And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse

Chop another line like a coda with a curse

Come on like a freak show, takes the stage

We give them the games we play, she say

I want something else

To get me through this

Semi-charmed kind of life, baby, baby

I want something else

I'm not listening when you say

Goodbye

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo

The sky was gold, it was rose

I was taking sips up into my nose

And I wish I could get back there, someplace back there

Smiling in the pictures you would take

Doing crystal meth will lift you up until you break

It won't stop, I won't come down, I keep stock

With a tick-tock rhythm, a bump for the drop

And then I bumped up, I took the hit that I was given

Then I bumped again, then I bumped again, I said

How do I get back there

To the place where I fell asleep inside you?

How do I get myself back to

The place where you said

I want something else

To get me through this

Semi-charmed kind of life, baby, baby

I want something else

I'm not listening when you say

Goodbye

I believe in the sand beneath my toes

The beach gives a feeling, an earthy feeling

I believe in the faith that grows

And the four right chords can make me cry

When I'm with you I feel like I could die

And that would be alright, alright

And when the plane came in, she said she was crashing

The velvet it rips in the city

We tripped on the urge to feel alive

But now I'm struggling to survive

Those days you were wearing that velvet dress

You're the priestess, I must confess

Those little red panties, they pass the test

So slide up 'round the belly face down on the mattress

And I want something else

To get me through this life, baby

I want something else

Not listening when you say

Goodbye, goodbye

Goodbye, goodbye

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

The sky was gold, it was rose

I was taking sips up into my nose

And I wish I could get back there, someplace back there

In the place, we used to start our lives

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo

(I want something else)

With hits like “Semi-Charmed Life”, “Jumper”, “How’s It Going To Be” and more, Third Eye Blind’s fresh take on alternative rock has delighted listeners everywhere since 1993. In recent years the band’s popularity has only grown with their most recent tour–Summer Gods–breaking their previous attendance records. During this 2019 tour the band donated a portion of the revenue from each ticket sold to off-set their carbon footprint in partnership with ClimeCo.

Of their latest full album, Screamer, lead singer Stephan Jenkins said: “My current mood resonates with rebellion, energy, courage, and risk.” Adding that “I seek to combine it with a percussive level of musical immediacy in this collection of songs to cultivate collective idealism and an unapologetic aspiration towards humanistic values.”
